We are trying to set an attendance record......anyone within 14 hours drive time should be there. NO EXCUSES:D

Everyone should come out for a great weekend on the water, ride behind some new ski and wakeboard boats, and meet some fellow MC owners.

Chicago MasterCraft will be sending down a boat for all to demo/ride behind.

Questions, concerns, or need more info don't hesitate to post or give me a call: 630-533-2760!

Erk, I footed behind a 27 foot baja so it really doesn't matter to me what we have down there to foot off of. The X7 or Mags 209 would be fine for me.

Does it make sense for me to trailer our boat 12 hours for the weekend, one way? If we have enough people who are actually gonna foot, then it makes sense. If it's me and SassyDog footin' all weekend and no body else, then that doesn't make sense.

If we need additional fly-highs I can bring one down for someone to use.

I believe my boom is already out on loan :)

Your boom will make an appearance Erk. ;)

Does he still want an X-7 or X-9 or can he roll an X-1?

Erk, don't listen to Footin. I'll give you a heads up when I'm ready. I've firmed up on a X-9 (I think). I'm looking forward to getting behind Jeff's X-7, but I've busted up my knee this summer so I have to take it easy.

That silver metal flake still looks good and available. Is he ready to sell it below cost to get rid of it? My offer is $40K out the door.

This is a sweet boat:
